Virtual Density Lab

Created by

Students use PhET Sim to explore density in an inquiry based lab. Check out the Sim here:: http://phet.colorado.edu/sims/html/density/latest/density_en.html?fbclid=IwAR09bUeRxx_DckEweccfg2_1DozdustsrS4RJYOtwDkaHwiyJ6RDzLTofPIThis lab first walks students through finding volume through water displacement. Then students explore densities of different materials with the same mass but different volume, same volume but different mass, and then same density but different masses and volumes. Fina

Conservation of Momentum Lab Series using Marbles

Created by

Northern Lights Science

This listing features two labs about the conservation of momentum using marbles. I facilitate this activity series on successive days in my eighth-grade physical science class. This lab set aligns with our unit about Newton’s three laws. In the first lab activity, students determine if there is a positive correlation between the number of marbles released down the ruler ramp and the number of stationary marbles ejected upon impact on the bottom, flat portion of the track. In the second lab acti
